Pudong a village near the city of Shanghai is on the hunt for a bloodsucking creature that some believe may be the infamous Chupacabra. According to reports the predator has killed hundreds of animals including chickens and ducks only sucking the blood from its prey rather than eating the meat. The style of kills are suspiciously familiar to those associated with the legendary cryptid leading to more and more speculation. A mysterious four-toed webbed footprint was found which is believed to belong to the predator although it has yet to be identified. China hasn’t been a place associated with Chupacabra sightings or encounters.

Some people thought it may have been an animal that escaped from a wild animal park in Shanghai, but park officials reported no missing animals during the ongoing investigation. Efforts to catch the mysterious creature have been unsuccessful and local police have even resorted to doing nighttime inspections on local livestock. It may be a stretch to believe this could be proof of a China Chupacabra although many aspects of the reports are similar to Chupacabra reports from elsewhere.
